Prince KhaemwasetIt's just past midnight, so here we go with a new Magic Monday. The picture is of Khaemwaset, the fourth son of the pharaoh Ramses II. Unlike his older brothers, who took up military careers, he entered the priesthood and became famous for his scholarship, his restoration of historic tombs and temples, and his mastery of magic -- so much so that stories of his occult exploits were still being told a thousand years later, and have been preserved in two documents dating from well after the Greek conquest of Egypt. Under the name "Setne Khamuast" -- the closest translation of his religious title and name yet available in the early 20th century -- he was an important figure in the legendary history of Dion Fortune's Fraternity (now Society) of the Inner Light. 

Ask me anything about occultism and I'll do my best to answer it. Any question received by midnight Monday Eastern time will get an answer. If you're in a hurry, or suspect you may be the 143,916th person to ask a question, please check out the very rough version 1.0 of The Magic Monday FAQ here.

I've had several people ask about tipping me for answers here, and though I certainly don't require that I won't turn it down. You can use the button below to access my online tip jar. If you're interested in political and economic astrology, or simply prefer to use a subscription service to support your favorite authors, you can find my Patreon page here and my SubscribeStar page here

With that said, have at it!

***This Magic Monday is now closed -- and yes, this means you. See you next week!***
